I don’t think the issue is *REALLY the iMac images. I ran into a similar problem with others saying you can’t use Apple’s products as images (nor use their product names in a post). I called their legal department and asked about it and they snidely laughed and responded, “Well, if we COULD control screenshots of our products like that, we would.” The only restriction they can really enforce, legally, is the “endorsement” bit. If you are portraying an image in a way as to make it look like Apple is endorsing your product….it’s illegal.

Obviously you can’t use Apple’s images (i.e. from their website) of their own products without permission.

If anyone needs to use their images, you should write them. I have found them friendly and helpful.
